ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I opened the pdf in zathura with the poppler PDF engine, and it opens fine.  Dolphin filemanager can show a thumbnail of the PDF, so it's valid there as well.  Not sure what it is about this PDF, I am clueless about them.  Sorry if this is the wrong place.

I have attached the PDF, it is some info about a videogame named Arc Raiders.
